Hmmm...
I have always dried meat and fish on a wire mesh in front of a fan at room
temperature with no problem--except if the ambient humidity is very high (as
it is here in Hawaii unfortunately) then mold sometimes beats the drying. I
guess I don't know what to make of your wet bison. Let us know if you figure
it out.
